I installed Everywhere Sidebar 4 4B4 with no problem, but need to insert two jpeg images in it. How do I do that?

Create an html forum block (Forums & Moderators > Forum Blocks Manager > Add Block) and add the image code to it.

Hi Lynne,
I followed the instructions through to the Add Block menu. There I found that I had to choose the type of block between custom html/php, new forum posts, tag cloud, forum threads. None seemed just right for an image so I went with custom html. My image is uploaded into the images file for the forum so I tried <img src="images/Front Cover2.png" width=255" height=307"/>, but simply got an empty box titled custom html/php in the sidebar. Don't know what to try next.Comment

You should ask in the release thread at the .org or the authors support forum for his gold (29$!!) versionComment

Loco, since this is just about adding a block with an image, the fact he is using the Everywhere Sidebar mod is irrelevant.
Can we get a link to see the problem? It sounds like that path to the image may be incorrect.

Hi,
An easy way to see what I have done is to go to the forum home page at http://www.forum.parentingbytemperament.com because the block on that page now has the code I typed in sitting at the top of the sidebar. (Incidentally, it is a jpeg image, not png). I am not clear about how far back the pathway should go. I tried "images/FrontCover.jpeg" and "Forum/images/FrontCover.jpeg" but the result was the same.Comment

Remove the space from your image file name. Spaces are not technically allowed in URLS.Translations provided by Google.

Also, you selected HTML under the option Content Type - not text?

Hi Lynne,
I have tried both text and html in the Content type. With one (text, I think) I get the code I put in. With the other I get just the box with no content. (And, although I typed the image file name with a space in a reply here, I didn't do that in the block menu).Comment

A blank box would mean your browser can't find the image. Right click on it and view source... Or inspect the element with Firebug or developer tools. What does it say?Translations provided by Google.

Trevor, it is a small stroke of genius. Taking the e out of jpeg did it. Thanks to all who helped on this. Last question: is there any way to remove the box title that sits on top of the block (says something like customhtml/php)? It seems unnecessary.Comment

You would need to edit the template to remove that.
To find the template to modify, do this - vboptions > General Settings > Add Template Name in HTML Comments > set to Yes . Then go back to your page and view the source code and you will see the name of the template called around your part of the code. (Sometimes the template is the one mentioned at the very top of the page source.)
